    I said stay out of the truck. I said nothing about the 4 wheeler!!!:biggrin_25517:

    Hell when I was a pothead, I found I could fly:biggrin_2554: drive much better stoned than drunk!

    Now I prefer to be sober when a vehicle (ANY VEHICLE) is involved and I have to operate it.

    It's more the feeling of 'I shouldn't be driving this fast when I'm stoned'
    but you're doing 45 in the hammer lane.

    didjya ever notice that all the bad things happening with weed now also happened with alcohol during the prohibition era.big organized crime syndicates ,smuggling at every border and coast,huge quantities of government money wasted and all for what?

    the" daughters of the american revolution "had a better argument against alcohol,than the current argument against weed .

    we have done this before and it makes less sense than ever.i know i never supported any cartel when i lived in alaska

    oh well i don't care anymore i used to love her but it"s all over now

    You wanna keep smoking and keep driving?? Do us all a favor and park your truck back at the company you are working for and give them back their keys! If you want you can take your CDL and put it in a nice picture frame to look at while you toke your mf brains out!! Maybe you will come to your senses later and decide that it just isn't worth it!! Should that day come, then take your CDL off the wall and go back to trucking!!

    Marijuana, just like any drug or alcohol; should never be used in conjuction with driving (any type of vehicle) or operating heavy equipment - a no brainer.

    That being said, marijuana is one of the safest medicinal drugs in existence; exponentially safer than the synthetic poisons the pharmaceutical manufacture, and doctors prescribe and push like candy. The multi billion dollar pharmaceutical companies would never allow cannabis be completely legalized - cannabis can be easily cultivated at home, even on a large scale, and unless the pharma companies could figure out a way control cultivation, they'd never allow it; they'll just continue selling THC in pill form, as they've been doing all along.

    Cannabis is a much safer recreational drug than alcohol (even though I don't smoke, I drink).

    The only drug you could possibly get away with abusing, and still pass a drug test the next day?

    Psilocybin cubensis - psychoactive mushrooms, "shrooms". Psilocyn, the psychoactive chemical metabolite, isn't tested in a UA.

    I'm no pro-drug cheerleader - but the war on drugs, specifically cannabis, is retarded.

    It also depends on your weight. If your over weight thc stays in your fat cells longer.

    I used to smoke years ago, but now I drive a truck. I do miss it sometimes, but with randoms, possibility of an accident[you will get tested], I choose to stay away from it. Once you test positive, it's all over. I do love my miller high life when I'm home and not driving anything.:biggrin_25525:

    I switched from weed to crystal meth and couldn't be happier. Now I can drive for 4 days straight and really knock out some miles, plus I lost 117 pounds. That's what I would do if I were you, but it's just my opinion.
